Peter Green

I will drink Owd Roger whenever I get to the the UK. (z!)

ZR, then I promise you you WILL rock till you fall over and can't get up!! :P

B) True, but a lot of those guys came about because of Clapton (that's what Carlos said). Hendrix had to go to the UK to get his mojo, and so I consider him mainly as a Brit. Roy was doing his thing all along, and guys like Duane and Terry Kath came along later.

I'm not saying that there weren't any good players in the States back then. In fact, in San Francisco, there was a guitar player in the early 60s in a band called Les Welch & The Preludes that played in North Beach before it became topless. I've forgotton the guys name, but he was the local hero to us teen age wannabe guitarists way back when.

As far as rock'n'roll goes, it was the Brits that led the way, and I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for the Union Jack. [{::]

Let's not forget Robbie Robertson when he was in the Hawks. Many of us old timers remember those days! He was one smokin' guitar player!

Rev George

If my memory isn't playing tricks on me, I believe Robbie's a native Canadian. Of course, Canada is connected to the United States, but don't ever tell a Canadian they're North American. ;)

The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions: 1967-1969
A must for any Peter Green fan. lots of unreleased studio stuff.

Too true, blueswriter, from a Canadian Red Sox (oh yea Yaz), Bruin, (number 4 Bobby Orr) fan. (z!)
